Marçala tells the story of a woman, Antònia Mas Galmés, who lived a long life, but out of step with her time. Her story was not only a closely guarded family secret but also something her hometown of Manacor had forgotten.

Through a dialogue that recreates different episodes and anecdotes from her life, we discover the events that gave rise to this silence. But who among us is without silences? Secrets are often born to protect us, and yet they have an expiry date. The truth always finds its way into the open.


Activity curated by Carla Rovira
With the participation of Bàrbara Nicolau
 

Bàrbara Nicolau is an actress from Manacor who trained in acting at the Institut del Teatre in Barcelona and holds a degree in Political and Administrative Sciences from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). Marçala is her most personal work: an exploration of her own identity through the figure of her aunt, Antònia Mas Galmés.
